Beginner cross stitch patterns

Beginner cross stitch patterns made simple. Create low-colour, easy-to-follow counted charts from your own images for free.

Beginner patterns should be forgiving: small, few colours, and easy to count. Our maker lets you dial exactly that so your first charts are a joy, not a chore.

Set it up for success - Keep the design **under 100 stitches** on the long side - Limit colours to around **10** - Choose **black-and-white symbols** for an easy-to-read printed chart

Every chart includes numbered guide lines and centre markers so you always know where you are. Read how to read a chart and the beginner's guide to get going.
